i think we will not lose Gib as we have conceded the fishing rights

???? I don't have a boss, except 'her indoors' of course

lol, I cant work out how to get images from my computer onto here> it wants urls all the time

At no time during the Cold War as I was growing up,did I ever feel the threat of a nuclear bomb going off (To be fair I was too young to know what was going on during the Cuban crisis) I would not put money on this not happening in the near future. The treats of this will not only be from NK, but many terrorist organisations spread throughout the world. If they sent one off, where could you retaliate. I read about 5 years ago that the Russians couldn't account for a 2 or 3 suitcase bombs that had terrible capabilities for destruction, that were lost in the breakup of the Soviet Union. The fear was that they were out there to be sold. It is sad but I expect to wake up one day and see that a city has been nuked. We are powerless to Oppenheimers pandoras box

I see that Ox has now signed for Liverpool. Is the new trend/trick 'I only want to play for Liverpool' that gets the price down for the buyer

I'm ambivalent about Davis but I don't think he is ducking there. I still cant understand how that went in, but it is history. Davis is a hardworking player who with a bit more guile would not be at SFC but a top 6 club. Anyone any good gets taken away.

that's what I thought, no offer apparently made and so how can that be improved? Would the owners of Liverpool come out with such a statement they did in their apology to then go back on it,I suppose if they buckle re Coutinho, they may not be to their word re VVD. I assume they are waiting for us to contact them offering VVD for sale

As annoying as it is for me personally, I have to admit that Liverpool are going to be a superb side soon, and VVD would be one of the major final building blocks, to them being back to the top of the tree.

No doubt fanciful and unikely to happen, but if NK did send a few of US cities to ash, would the US ever recover. In that time they would be overtaken in the pecking order by China,who would become potentially the most powerful nation on earth while the US had to try and recover. Yes China would suffer from some fall out but not the carnage the US would have. It is pretty unpalatable but the Chinese seem to me to have opened the Pandoras box and cant shut it now.

I'm not a fan of Reed but I don't think it will be his doing if VVD goes to Liverpool. The new owners will off to a bad start though.

is this from the Labour party who didn't make themselves clear what they wanted in the brexit campaign. A party that needs to get out of Europe at all costs so that they can renationalise, a nonsense that is so expensive and unlikely to improve anything. Europe are united and not breaking ranks in the negotiations, while we have people putting cracks into our own position, for their own political agendas

yep but you do like to turn the knife on Redmond as much as you can. Therefore I can understand why posters think you are point scoring

He was going to join SPurs and jump ship. I know that as a work contact, socialised with him and he was open that he was following Poch to Spurs. It was all agreed as far as I recall

There is no way Chrisiensen will be coming to us IMHO

then Let him stay, let him stay

Let him go, let him go. As long as its not Liverpool. There is no guarantee he will come back as the same player as when he last played for us. The fee will be at a figure that we may be able to get a goal scorer in

I'm not sure that is the case. I suspect we bought as many duds as good ones under his watch as well. Was VVD or Mane bought when Mitchell was here? it is a question not a statement

I suggest that someone who comes on to impart some info with fellow fans and then constantly being called on the lines of a liar or fantasist, is enough for them to not bother.

The jealousy of some posters on here is remarkable. Everyone seems to want to be the ITK poster. So far Tom28 has been pretty consistent and so lets not chase him away

That is reassuring. I have stated before that it seems all our young players are not athletic and all seem pretty short. I worry about the coaches,as if the goalkeeping coach is anything t go by, the keepers go backwards not forward under his stewardship

Exactly,you can have the best facilities in the world but if you fill them with dross you get dross

Personally I think Redmond is a superb player and will be another to command a high fee when he leaves. I would like to see him in a more central attacking role, right up on the defenders shoulder to use his pace

Puel did wonders with a squad that had 30+ plus goals ripped from it. I will back the new man as we need him to succeed, but he has to start getting something out of this average squad

I do listen to it, but it needs a bit of spicing up. You are just all so nice and reasoned.
